sharing her incredible knowledge and for the patience to put up with this novice writer. Thank you. And to my proofreader, Melissa Gray, you are amazing.
Finally, there have been numerous stories of people who have seemingly solved all their problems by winning a large sum of money, only to find out the real problems were just starting. But there are also lots of instances where family members, or even co-workers, win money together and everything works out fine. This story is not meant to be a judgment of the lottery, or for that matter, brothers who live on a farm in Nebraska. It is meant to be first and foremost a great read.
I hope you enjoyed it.

SMOKE ON THE MOUNTAIN: A Story of Survival
32-year-old Atlanta attorney Cody McAlister had everything: his dream job, a healthy bank account, and a beautiful wife. But two years after a bitter divorce and a bout of heavy drinking, Cody is still struggling to put the pieces of his once-idyllic life back together. In an effort to regain his sanity, he embarks on a five-day backcountry fly fishing trip to revitalize and reassess his life. When the unthinkable happens, Cody finds himself in a fight for his life. It’s a battle that no courtroom drama can match—a test that will challenge his own basic beliefs about success, happiness, and what it means to truly live. With the help of a widowed fly shop owner and a determined park ranger, Cody must dig deep within himself to survive.
